    Since we're planning so far ahead why not go big? Can this be a XK-Forum sponsored event featuring guest representatives from sponsored businesses like 4xGuard, etc.? Can we pick a place that will allow us to reserve a private space just for us and maybe go even bigger and rent a stage and put some entertainment on there like a band or DJ? Can we maybe talk to Jeep and have them come out and showcase some promotional material? Seems like we would have enough time to plan something of this scale. I could vouch for finding the entertainment since I'm in the industry as my hobby.

    I think the first thing we to do is find a place that the majority of us can agree to. Then once we no where we are going we can work on when. Then we can start lining up more stuff for the event. We would also need a point of contact for us some one to take charge and spear head the operation I cast my vote for anybody but myself LOL. Maybe the three organizers for our chapter events can pool there resources.

    Quit discussing who will and who wont and it's too long. FIND PLACES TO GO the answer will present itself.
    Once we have places to consider, then weed them out.
    Silverton-Colorado is a place
    Flagpole Knob Dayton Va
    Jeepskool - Northen Ohio
    Badlands-Indiana Mid/East Indiana
    Ok - now add to the list. Nothing other than Canada is a bad idea. (kidding)
    Alaska-

    We should just make a big list of places to go and then have a poll who would be willing to go to each place. Then which ever place has the most votes in the place we will go. Then we just need to come up with a date. It would be far enough out to where people would be able to make arrangement to attend.

    Yes, XK-Forum can sponsor the event and would be glad to regardless of location. I really think that is we look at Colorado we have more space and better trails. I also think it woul dbe easier to get corporate sponsors for an event like that over a park setting but do not know that as a fact.
